| Reverse description | Reverse displays a circular or crescent-shaped architectural motif at center, likely representing a stylized church facade or portal, encircled by a beaded or linear inner ring. The surrounding field bears the legend +HEINRIC IM, invoking the name and imperial title of Emperor Henry II, whose authority was invoked by the Bremen archiepiscopal mint. The design is characteristic of anonymous episcopal deniers struck under imperial suzerainty during the early Salian period. The die work is bold but somewhat crude, with slight doubling visible on the flan edge. The overall composition follows the conventions of Ottonian ecclesiastical coinage in northern Germany. |
